Fleshhouse - Santa In Flames lyrics

rate me

"Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!"<br />

<br />

A man in his slippers lounges around<br />

Dreaming to pass the time<br />

His head, filled with blues, reds, whites, and yellows<br />

The sky<br />

Filled with black<br />

With nostalgia in pocket, those good old days fly<br />

Skeletons' bones touch the ground<br />

Happy he smiles, dressed in red and in green<br />

But the green is all dying and red is our blood-washed dead sky<br />

<br />

A man in his slippers, holding the key<br />

To a door he unconsciously locked<br />

His plasticized angels<br />

In fool's golden heaven<br />

Snicker as he sleeps<br />

<br />

And barbed wire<br />

It chokes him and cuts him down<br />

Without him even knowing<br />

Tension amounts<br />

The temperature higher<br />

He pushes his Santa<br />

Into the fire<br />

<br />

"Have a merry, merry, merry, merry one!"<br />

<br />

[Repeat]: <br />

Now... Santa's... In... Flames... <br />

<br />

"Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus"<br />

"Merry Christmas Everyone!"<br />

"Help me!"<br />

"Santa Claus!"<br />

<br />

The announcer spat babble 'bout faraway wars<br />

The trees were all dying<br />

The streets, filled with whores<br />

Outside the old man was clutching his cane<br />

Watching a child's lungs collapse as he writhed in pain<br />

The hills were eroding<br />

The landfills overflowed<br />

All the world was a time bomb about to explode<br />

The world all around us was closing its doors<br />

But this flare for the dramatic<br />

Can be such a bore<br />

<br />

And all the while<br />

The man - he just snored<br />

Till nothing was left<br />

Nothing to live for<br />

And as Santa burned, plastic face in the ash<br />

It dawned on the man that he had caused this crash<br />

<br />

He wept as he watched Santa burn in the fire<br />

He wept as he watched Santa burn in the fire<br />

In the fire<br />

<br />

"There's no Santa Claus"<br />

"You're safe now [?] ...Santa Claus is gone"
